Post-Project Depression

Depression comes in many forms. There are many sides to depression. When performing a simple search, 4 main causes come up: family history, illness and health issues, medication, drugs, or alcohol, and personality. Depression is broad. When conducting some research, I came across an article about Post-Project Depression. Something I never heard of before, but know something had to be out there for writers/authors that's similar to post-postpartum depression. There are layers of personal things in my life that I've overcome and am still overcoming. And yet, I'm experiencing a low after the high, which is something I've been aware of for a while after I completed writing my series. I emersed myself into a fantasy world that I created with very real characters and now I'm back in reality. I'm working hard to spread the word about my books, but I miss the fire in my soul when I was writing them. Crave to start other writing projects, but I'm taking the necessary time off before diving back in. The first step in overcoming anything is awareness. To anyone reading this, I hope this brings you awareness to any major project you've worked on and are now struggling to find that fire again.
